I’m exploring the possibility of using this template to build a service marketplace similar to Fiverr or Upwork. I’d like to know if it’s suitable for a platform where freelancers can:

Create their own profiles and list services

Offer fixed pricing packages (Basic, Standard, Premium)

Handle orders, payments, and client communication directly through the platform

Additionally, I’m interested in offering services like construction or other larger tasks where the price can’t be set upfront. In these cases, is it possible to:

Allow clients to post a custom task request

Withhold funds securely (as escrow or similar)

Release the funds once the job is completed and approved?

Would this require heavy customization, or is this something the template can support or be adapted for?

Thanks in advance for your feedback.

Hi, please check https://docs.purethemes.net/workscout/knowledge-base/commissions-and-wallet/ https://docs.purethemes.net/workscout/knowledge-base/stripe-split-payments-support/

Funds are indeed distributed only when both sides agree that project is completed but this feature works only with Stripe Split Payment

Hi,

I hope you’re well.

In resume manager it has an option to:

Add a resume using the listing form and create an account at the same time (email and password fields are at the top of listing form).

This doesn’t seem to work with the theme. Is there anyway to get this working?

Thank you

Thank you very much. If I renew my support, is this something you could help with if needed or would this come under custom development? Thanks again, I really appreciate it.

I have managed to do this now. Can the same thing be accomplished with your LISTEO theme? I will renew support for the theme to help development :-) Thanks again, very happy with this.

in Listeo user has to be registered first to add listing

Hello Pure Team how to Require an active job package to send private messages both for employer and candidate. Thanks

Hi, it cannot be fine but we will consider this

Thank you for your consideration!

Hello dear purethemes team i will buy but my waiting service gigs feature similar fiverr. Thanks Regards

Well, not anytime soon.

Hey! Do you think this could work for a country like Chile?

I’d need to fully translate it into Spanish. Also, it has to support local payment gateways like Transbank Webpay. Can I do that with add-ons?

For example, would commissions still work well with a new gateway like Transbank?

Thanks in advance!

Yes it could. You can use any payment gateway that works with WooCommerce however keep in mind that split payments (where part of payment goes to you as a commission and part to listing owner) is only possible with stripe. In other payment methods you’d need to payout listing owners manually https://docs.purethemes.net/listeo/knowledge-base/commissions-and-wallet/

Hello dear purethemes team Any update for new features ? Thanks Regards

Yes i think buy.

Please add micro gig services similar fiver.com in coming update. Thanks Regards

How can we activate the transparent header on blog pages?

Also, I activated it on Job pages but it didn’t take effect on the main job page (only single pages) and also the logo doesn’t change to the transparent header logo

Then why do you have a theme option to “enable a transparent header” for jobs pages if you “don’t support it”? See- https://snipboard.io/Hx0FkR.jpg

And why do you have an option to “enable transparent header” on other pages if you “don’t support it”? See – https://snipboard.io/zjxGn7.jpg

Please answer those two clear points?

You do support it because its built in to your theme options and settings but it doesn’t work – its called a bug

Options will be removed then. Thanks for noticing.

I’m just being honest about the transparent header. I guess you’d prefer an answer where I say we’ll fix it and then the fix never actually happens? :) Transparent header for single job page was used back in 2020 maybe and we just forgot to remove this option (no one ever before bothered us about that so it’s still there). Since then we changed header structure and modified a lot of things.

There are better solutions to modify header background and text color if you wish I can provide CSS snippet

Pre-sales question:

Does this theme also have a built-in feature we can customise on the candidate’s progress for an employer to view?

Can the candidates’ source come from recruiters or direct applicants?

Can we restrict recruiter A to view candidates from recruiter B?

Can this theme also prevent double application from both candidates and recruiters?

Hi,

We don’t have such features.

I can’t update the WP Job Manager plugins, can I ask you to send me the files with the current version of the plugin?

Hello i can confirm the BANNED HOST BUG / PROBLEM that other users are experimenting. Can you solve please quickly? I sent a ticket and i need urgent support i’m loosing working time on this project and i have to deliver.

Thanks

From what I see you installed theme so this license glitch doesn’t really affect anything. Check email.

i cant activate and you tool is 404: https://purethemes.net/workscout-activator.zip

Please remove my host from banning: ki.jetzt

We will activate your license manually. Please send us support ticket using this form: https://themeforest.net/item/workscout-job-board-wordpress-theme/13591801/support/contact

Is it possible to fetch jobs from other boards like Indeed and display them too on the website? I know that Indeed offers a API for that.

I requested for a refund but up to now this has not yet come through

We don’t have any refund request from your username, please send one here https://themeforest.net/refund_requests/new

Hello, can you help me with responsive design please? login/sign in is on the menu. Look at it please. This is only one problem which i have. Thank you very much.

Can you give me my money back?

And you can cancel support

There’s literally no space for that many menu items. I think that’s obvious – it’s just impossible to magically fit everything into one row. I suggested solution. You can request refund for support there https://themeforest.net/refund_requests/new

Hello, pre-sales question: How are subscriptions handled for Employers? We want an auto-renew subscription for employers to create job listings. But we do not want to have to use Woocommerce subscriptions plugin, which costs 5x the cost of the theme itself every single year and is a complete ripoff, aside from Woocommerce support issues alone. So, how can we do subscriptions for Employers? Would like to be able to have their job auto-renew every month for a set fee.

Without that plugin recurring payments are not possible, sorry.

Okay thank you

Hello dear purethemes team i want disable job posts and i want use only freelancer features. it is possible ? Thanks Regards

Hi, sure, you need WP Job Manager as it’s the base plugin but you don’t need to set the jobs related pages

Hi there, I have a question before buying it. Is it possible to upload a CSV file with a few dozen job listings first and then later on companies can add more manually?

Super, thank you. Another question came up. I can see that Indeed job listing integration is available. Does that mean I can integrate Indeed job listings to my website? Or can companies advertising on Indeed import their own job listings to my page?

You can import jobs from indeed or other website using this method https://docs.purethemes.net/workscout/knowledge-base/how-to-import-job-listings-from-other-websites-using-go-fetch-jobs/

indeed is just an example in this article

Hi can I please try to submit a job using your form, I want to test the geotargeting. At the moment as far as I can get is submit a company, then it goes to pending

What exactly would you like to test? Google address autocomplete/geocoding?

You can test it on our other theme listeo.pro by adding listing. The only diffrence is that workscout does not have map in submit form otherwise it’s the same system

Can you reply my email please? I have problem with your theme. Thank you.

Consider renewing support it expired 2 years ago. Also you have an issue with mailbox https://prnt.sc/oUsnt_6ekbgj

And if i pay support. Do you know help me ? Edit with elementor do not working and task expired too

We will check your ticket and if it’s a bug – it will be fixed in theme update in future. We already answered you ~10 emails even though your support expired 2 years ago and requested multiple time renewing it. We believe it’s unfair to purchase a theme a couple of years ago and then request support two years later for functionality that was only added recently. We receive 150+ tickets per week and we prioritize people with valid support.

Hi, presales questions.

1. Will you create for next release a ‘become employer page’ with pricing table, similar to other popular job themes have? Example, https://felan.ricetheme.com/jobboard/become-employer/

2. Will you create a new demo page where a employer can ‘post a job’ and create account at the same time, without having to be logged in first. Example, https://cariera.co/post-job/

3. On your demo sign up page, can you make Employer tab to be selected and highlighted first, not Candidate.

thank you

1. We do not plan such features at this moment but you can do it with elementor.

2. It’s already possible.

3. It can be modified in theme options.

2. Can you provide a demo link to test ‘post a job’ page?
